Add a plugin that will allow the user to trigger the execution of
scripts from plugin hook points. This is particularly useful for early
boot debugging that needs to take place before regular services are
available.
For example, let's say that you want to enable some kernel tracing
before modules are loaded. With hook-scripts, you can just drop in a
shell script in /libexec/finit/hook/mount/all/ that will poke the
right control files in tracefs.
Init script return pretty quickly after launch, so we cannot use that to
detect if they, or the daemon they launched, have crashed. So we start
the service_retry() with a 2 sec delay, which should be ample time to
allow the pidfile plugin to detect a forking service's new PID.
In release-cycle regression, no public issue needed.

In some conditions, typically when the same command is used for multiple
services, e.g. the modules-load plugin, the svc_find() function returned
an existing "similar" entry instead of NULL, causing loss of config.
When creating, and searching for, a run/task/service we must follow the
new name:id paradigm to the letter. Always create based on name:id and
always search for matching name:id. The name may be derived from the
command, but they cannot be used interchangably.

This change makes it possible to see the new service's resulting name
and id before we create it with svc_new(). We extend the debug output
slightly to see what's going on and why we sometimes lose modules from
the modules-load plugin ...

For many usecases, e.g. the modules-load plugin, the same command can be
used to create multple run/task/services makeing it real difficult to
debug such systems when Finit does not show the correct task name. It
also hides nasty bugs, as will be shown in a later commit.

This adds support for a `set` directive in the modules-load plugin.
Currently only `set noindex` and `set index = NUM` are supported and
either disable indexing (:ID) of modules, or reset the index to NUM,
for the given file. For each new file read the index is reset to
the value it would have had. E.g.
01-foo.conf: => name:id
esp4.ko => modprobe.esp4.ko:1
set noindex
deflate.ko => modprobe.deflate.ko
02-bar.conf:
nls_iso8859-15.ko => modprobe.nls_iso8859-15.ko:3
nls_utf8.ko => modprobe.nls_utf8.ko:4
Fixes issue #257

Drop the config.h include from helpers.h after a report from a colleague
trying to build an external plugin from the latest GIT sources.
Instead, make sure config.h is included, and properly commented, in all
.c files that have configure #ifdefs and other deps. Also, move more
ot the includes from helpers.h to their respective .c file instead to
reduce the amount of headers an external plugin pulls in.

The bundled sulogin could be considered insecure, so leave it up to the
administrator, or system integrator, to decide which sulogin(8) is best
suited.

Finit can now track and set environment variables from finit.conf. The
syntax is pretty much what you'd expect:
foo=bar
baz="qux"
On reload of .conf files, all tracked environment variables are cleared
so if `foo=bar` is removed from finit.conf, or any finit.d/*.conf file,
it will no longer be used by Finit or any new (!) started run/tasks or
services.
The only variables reset to sane defaults on .conf reload are:
PATH=_PATH_STDPATH
SHELL=_PATH_BSHELL
LOGNAME=root
USER=root
It is entirely possible to override these as well from the .conf files,
but be careful. Changing SHELL changes the behavior of system() and a
lot of other commands as well.

When iterating over the system fstab file to call fsck, Finit calls the
helper function ismnt(), which opens /proc/mounts to make sure mounted
file systems are not fsck'ed. Both the main function and ismnt() used
the same non-reentrant getmntent() API which caused ismnt() to set the
fstab pointer for the first out of whack.
This change replaces getmntent() in the two critical functions with the
getmntent_r() API instead.

Some systems have /dev/root declared in their /etc/fastb as /. This is
as special device node created by the kernel based on the root=, and a
few other variables. This may be a symlink, and if so, and on a mdev
system, the symlink may point to the wrong device node ... so we must
try to figure out the major:minor from / and then traverse /sys/block
to find our root device.
Note: this commit also does a bit of refactoring for readability and
also adds a few debug lines that may be dropped before release.

A subtle regression was introduced in 5593372f, when moving to get
getmntent() family of APIs. Finding the 'ro' flag (or not) in the
system fstab broke and Finit never tried to remount / read-write.

This change basically add this for pre/post scripts:
sh -ac '. /path/to/env; exec ./pre-post.sh'
Meaning the env file can be a simple foo=bar file, which Finit reads and
call setenv() on all variables, and the user do not need to call export
on all variables -- additionally, any functions defined in an env file
can be used by the pre-post scripts, but are ignored by Finit. I.e.,
the service only gets the variables set, no functions.

The swapon and swapoff commands do not support a custom fstab, they
assume /etc/fstab is the only true source of swap devices and files.
This change adds rudimentary (!) support for figuring out any swap
device or file to use from any finit.fstab. Please note, options are
not supported at the moment.

Since a forking service, e.g. a sysv init script, will exit very early
we cannot log the same as for regular services "Starting foo[123]", so
instead we log "Started bar[321]" when we get the pidfile update and
the same when stopping a forking service, log "Stopped bar[321]" when
we collect the PID.

This change adds the following service conditions, which can be used to
synchronize other stanzas:

When logged in from sulogin we cannot send IPC to Finit, not even
signals, to delegate reboot. For usability, attempt to tell reboot that
it's in sulogin mode -- provided the bundled sulogin is used -- to let
reboot trigger over to forced reboot.
We cannot do much about initctl, just document this as a limitation.

This lets any callers of client_connect() decide what to do wrt. error
recovery and fallback mechanisms. E.g., reboot may want to check if
it's in sulogin mode, or fall back to sending signals to PID 1.

This adds support for bringing up the system with an alternate fstab at
boot. E.g., when using a primary/secondary setup for boot partitions.
By default /etc/fstab is read, like before, this can now be changed
using configure --with-fstab=/path/to/fstab.primary, which sets the
default that can be overridden using finit.fstab=/etc/fstab.secondary
If mounting, or fsck, fails in any way, Finit calls its own bundled
sulogin, or the system sulogin(8), to let the user handle the issue.
If there is no sulogin available, Finit will try to start up in its
rescue.conf boot mode.
Please note, in either of these rescue modes, use `reboot -f` to get the
system to reboot. Finit is on pause in the background in rescue mode
and cannot be relied on (since there may not be any writable filesystems
available.).
